For over two decades, concerned citizens have joined together to partner with the Gettysburg National Military Park and the Eisenhower National Historic Site to preserve and protect this hallowed ground for present and future generations.

Friends of Gettysburg members don't just sit on the sidelines. They get involved in the work of preserving history at Gettysburg by building and painting fences, restoring monuments, donating priceless land and artifacts and raising money to support battlefield rehabilitation efforts.

Most recently, Friends of Gettysburg members helped to build a world-class Museum and Visitor Center that features the magnificent Gettysburg Cyclorama painting, a film A New Birth of Freedom, a 12-gallery Gettysburg Museum of the American Civil War, a resource room and state-of-the-art storage and curatorial area for the park’s collections. As a member of the Friends of Gettysburg, you are preserving one of America’s most important historical treasures.
